Assess Internal and External Growth Opportunities
In comparing the situation between Sprint Nextel and LEI, many similarities appear. First of all, each firm found itself in a situation where competition threatened survival. For Sprint to grow, additional spectrum space was needed to build a competitive 4G network.

For LEI, the proposal could include a portion paid in cash and a larger portion paid through LEI stock. LEI could retain earnings and reduce the dividend per share. In the last two years, the dividend per share has doubled. With the growth opportunity, stockholders may approve such a plan. Another example for LEI in terms of growth opportunities and cross-border growth strategies is that of DiamlerChrysler.

It was proven from this scenario that just because two organizations currently have...
